Awesome Vacuum. First time purchasing a Dyson and I’m very satisfied with its quality and effectiveness. Very easy to use. Quick to install and it cleans up my hardwood floors and rugs very well.

This vacuum cleaner is a great purchase. The pros of this model by Dyson are the compact size of the vacuum, the myriad of attachments, the suction on max suction, the fact that it is cordless, and the weight. The cons, however, are the short battery life and the long charge time. There is a considerable difference between the two suction modes. The first mode, which makes the vacuum run for 40 minutes, barely has any suction. I find myself going over the same area twice. However now I just turn the knob to max suction which is more efficient and I find that this level is really powerful. I find the difference in these settings a little troubling. Also, the short battery life on this vacuum is terrible. My drone for instance, the Mavic Pro, has more watt-hours in the battery than there are on this Dyson. Also, the battery on my drone charges in a 1/5 of the time. Dyson has the room to make the battery accommodate about 15 more watt-hours and could redesign the charger so it charges in an hour and half. I guess that is the drawback when you have a cordless vacuum. The vacuum itself is less cumbersome but at the same time, you cannot vacuum indefinitely like you can with a cord vacuum.

not heavy, portable & powerful. comes with plenty of switchable tips / tools and they change with just one click. Had this vacuum for about 2 months and its working great, no loss of suction. just need to remember to wash the filter every other month.

Lightweight, great suction, and battery digital percentage display is pretty accurate for the three speeds available.

I love the versatility of this product with all the different attachments. I also love how lightweight it is! The power on max is incredible - this thing does an amazing job on hardwood, carpet, and tile! I just wish the charge lasted a bit longer!

Simply a fantastic little vacuum, that basically sums it up. It's lightweight, powerful, simple to change accessories, and emptying it is a breeze! I would recommend this vacuum too anyone.

[Employee of bestbuy] The V8 was a really good vacuum. It is really easy to use and very light to use and vacune the whole house. It is very portable. Definitely recommend to people who are looking for easy and effective cleaning.

I've only had it for 2 months but it's nice not having to pull and lug around a huge heavy vacuum. It's very easy to use and all the attachments are extremely helpful. Charging takes only 4 hours and you get about 2 1/2 hours of vacuuming.

Easy to use with great suction power. My only complaint is the battery life, it doesn’t last very long, I usually have to recharge it automatically to finish vacuuming. Overall, it works great, but the battery could definitely be improved.

Love the way it cleans. Just wished it would stay charged longer

Good vacuum! Amazing power, excellent battery life. Awesome performance for hardwood and tile. It does great on thin carpet but does struggle a little bit with thick carpet. Looking forward to the longevity promised by the prestigious Dyson Name.

The absolute best purchase I’ve made. It works very well. Best $400 I’ve spent. It puts up all lil pieces great suction.

Lightweight and great suction on vacuum. Great for a multi level unit.

Don't hesitate. Buy this! Nice and light (I am like 105 lbs), so easy to use but its powerful and comes with many attachments. This battery lasts to finish our travel townhome with charge left. Which is completely the opposite of what the sales lady told my husband. He left the store, called home told me how she said it only lasts ten minutes and other stuff. I said get back and buy it. I had read tons of reviews. Called him back to tell him don't buy from her, but too late. Shouldn't be trying to stop you from buying something. Wasted our time. My husband and I agreed - it's one of the best buys we EVER made in 37 years. Bought 6-27-21 Thousand Oaks 14:04

I will never buy any other brand of vaccuum again. This thing is absolutely amazing. My only con is it doesnt stay charged very long. Maybe 15 minutes at most before you need to charge it again. If you have pets though, this vacuum is a must.

Love love love! Can’t say enough good things about this vacuum!!!!

Super light weight to carry between different levels of the house. Cleans really well and I love how it can bend 90 degrees to get the hard to reach places. My only complaint is that the battery doesn’t last very long.

I would give it a 5/5 but the only reason I gave it a 4/5 is because the vaccum lasts only about 10 minutes and then I need to charge it which is not good. I now wish I knew that because I would rather get a vaccum that has a cord so that I don’t have to worry about how long it will last. Especially with the price this vaccum is.

I purchased the Dyson V8 cordless animal vacuum because the V6 only has a battery life of 20 minutes and the V8 has a battery life of 40 minutes. The suction power is awesome. The vacuum is easy to use and it comes with a variety of accessory tools. It cleans carpets as well as hardwood floors. I have a dog that sheds constantly and this vacuum makes it easy to get the hair up.

The Dyson V8 Animal Cordless vacuum cleaner is a versatile, powerful, yet easy-to-use vacuum that has opened my eyes to all the dust and dirt in our homes that is invisible to the naked eye. Using the Dyson, emptying the bin after a few quick passes over "clean" furniture, floors, or carpets demonstrates that looks can be deceiving when determining if something is truly clean.
